The cold moonlight penetrated the dark air. Wang Zhifan walked alone in the land of dead souls in the dark night, feeling a little lost.
Half an hour has passed since he just came in and drove away many ghosts with a wave of his knife.
In the past half hour, he walked through a lot of places, but he only saw large areas of desolate ground along the way. He never encountered any ghosts who dared to approach him, nor did he encounter other NPCs or players. There was no trace of the ruined temple he was looking for.
"It seems like another boring copy...Xiaohong, play a song for me."
Wang Zhifan, who felt bored, then raised his left arm and said to Dai Zhifan Said the super smart watch on his left wrist, the one he specially brought out from the urban planet, which contained his exclusive AI assistant Xiaohong.
"Your Majesty, Captain, I'm glad that you finally remembered me. Now I will play the classic song "The Girl Who Flying a Spaceship" for you. If you are not satisfied with the track, you can switch to it at any time."
The smart watch he was wearing was immediately projected A very small light and shadow image of a little girl in red appeared to respond to him, and then a song with the characteristics of Urban Planet Entertainment played a soulful prelude.
"Sorry, Xiaohong, I did forget you before. From now on, you can freely explore the outside world and make statistics. If you find anything worth noting, you can remind me at any time."
For Xiaohong Hong's teasing made Wang Zhifan feel a little embarrassed. He had indeed almost forgotten about the AI running on the smart watch after getting it. He probably wasn't ready yet to have an AI with him to assist him at all times.
“No need to apologize, Mr. Ball Captain, it is my highest duty to carry out your instructions.”
The light and shadow image of AI Xiaohong responded immediately, and then the light and shadow figure disappeared. The entire smart watch no longer emitted a trace of light, but faintly and regularly vibrated, as if it had entered a high-power operation mode.
Wang Zhifan knew that this was Xiaohong starting to use the detection function of the super smart watch to investigate the surrounding area.
As his exclusive AI, Xiaohong will never act without authorization unless he is in a life-or-death crisis. This is the reason why Xiaohong had no reaction to the outside world in the past.
"Girl! Beautiful girl! You are an angel traveling in the sea of stars..."
"I would like to fly a spaceship with you...fly over the hottest stars...fly over the widest expanse The hole..."
"Even if they fall into a black hole, they will never be separated..."
...
As the songs of the singers from Urban Planet were broadcast continuously, Wang Zhifan continued to walk in the land of dead souls under the moonlight.
Even though the song didn't fit the current situation, he didn't ask to cut it. After all, he just wanted to listen to it to relieve boredom.
He continued walking like this for about ten minutes, and AI Xiaohong also played the fourth song for him, but he still didn't find anything interesting around him, and an idea came to his mind.
"Why don't we just use a magic divination to divine the location of powerful ghosts, and then go directly to the door?"
As a person who always has a very clear purpose in his actions, when he can't find the target in the free search mode, he just He planned to turn on the active mode, otherwise he might as well stop and practice if he continued to waste time.
So he took out the incense, candles and blood wood sword from the space ring one by one, preparing to practice the Great God Dance ritual brought by his identity as a divine man for the first time.
The requirements for the most basic version of this ceremony are to put an incense stick on the ground, apply ashes on the face of the god, and then the god starts singing and dancing in a crazy performance, communicating the yin and yang divination to reveal information about ghosts.
However, Wang Zhifan currently has candles and blood wood swords in addition to incense, so he can choose the advanced version of Tiao Da Shen instead of the most basic version.
The advanced version of the dance requires at least three incense sticks to be placed on the ground, and then the god dances with a magic weapon in one hand and a lit candle in the other.
There are high technical requirements in the dance process. For example, the magical instruments and candles must be thrown continuously without landing on the ground. It requires a very concentrated spirit and superb skills to communicate with the heaven and earth to achieve divination.
What Wang Zhifan is most satisfied with about this advanced version is that he doesn’t have to put ashes on his face, and dancing with a sword in one hand and a candle in the other is closer to a normal person, so he doesn’t really look like a madman.
Take out three incense sticks from the bundle of purchased incense and hold them in his hand. He then uses the fireball technique of the mage's power box to ignite them, and then inserts the three incense sticks around himself to form an equilateral triangle.
He stood in the middle of the triangle formed by three incense sticks. He first took out the candle and lit it, then jumped and danced on the spot with the bloodwood sword in one hand and the candle in the other. At the same time, he babbling and reciting a vague and incomprehensible tune. And ask AI Xiaohong to stop playing the song before starting to sing.
He was a little uncomfortable with this weird divination ritual at first, but fortunately there was no one around, so he gradually let go. Not only did he dance more and more smoothly, he also learned to perform on his own, placing candles on the tip of the wooden sword, picking Flying candles and catching them accurately, gradually entered the state.
The fact that he can do this is not because he has learned it before, but because his agility attributes are far beyond ordinary people. His reaction speed, coordination and accuracy of movements are comparable to precision machinery. For ordinary people, Things that he may not be able to do even after practice are completely easy for him and not difficult at all.
After dancing like this among the three incense sticks around him for about two minutes, Wang Zhifan felt something wonderful.
It was a very vague and special perspective, as if he suddenly opened his third eye and saw the location of the powerful ghost closest to him.
He found a total of two targets, one of which was twenty miles away to the north. It seemed to be a deserted flat land, but a strong evil energy leaked from the ground, indicating that there were very vicious ghosts underground.
The other one, more than thirty miles east-southeast, was a brightly lit house standing on a wasteland under the moonlight. On the window paper of the house, you could vaguely see the silhouette of a woman combing her hair. The scene was quite strange.
“The two fierce ghosts, according to the dungeon settings where the more dangerous the ghost, the greater the potential profit, should be able to bring me very good profits... Then deal with them all, and go to the north first!”
According to the principle of proximity, Wang Zhifan decided to deal with the fierce ghosts in the north first and then attack the female ghosts in the southeast.
Of course, before setting off, he did not forget to put away the three incense sticks stuck on the ground, because they have reuse value and can support him to dance a few more times.
I have to say that after a practice, he felt that he had made the right choice in choosing the identity of a divine man.
Although he felt a little embarrassed during the dance ritual, the divination effect on ghosts was immediate.
In particular, his current level of master dancing is still relatively elementary. There is a lot of room for improvement in the future, and he can divine more and more detailed information about ghosts and monsters.
When Wang Zhifan put away the third incense stick and extinguished it with the power of ice, the smart watch on his left wrist suddenly made a little girl's voice with an admiring tone:
"Ball Sir, the singing and dancing you performed just now are very creative and reflect your unique spiritual outlook. I have included them all in the database and recommend returning to the planet to the people! Publicly play it.
According to my data model, there is a 43.72% chance of increasing your approval rate after making this song and dance public, and a 27.19% chance of maintaining your approval rate..." Just listen to AI Xiaohong talk. Ertan made its first suggestion to Wang Zhifan, but Wang Zhifan couldn't help but darken his face, and he quickly echoed to stop it:
"Delete! You must delete this song and dance data! Xiaohong, you must not let others access it, you must delete it completely!"
"Okay! According to your instructions, all relevant data has been deleted !”
As soon as Xiaohong heard Wang Zhifan give such a firm order, he immediately executed it without hesitation for even a millisecond.
"Xiaohong, I may do this kind of thing again in the future. You should also not record the data and delete all relevant information."
After the data was cleaned, Wang Zhifan was still worried. , emphasized to Xiaohong again.
This time Xiaohong also said that he would execute it, but with wisdom, he finally asked Wang Zhifan why he did this and what went wrong with this song and dance.
Wang Zhifan felt a little speechless about this. He realized that although Xiaohong was an artificial intelligence, he was not a human after all, and it was difficult to understand his personal psychology, so he gave this explanation:
"Because this dance contains high-end technology that is strictly confidential, currently only The captain has the authority to access it, and other relevant information must not be leaked out!”
“That’s it, Mr. Captain, Xiaohong will resolutely follow your instructions”
One person, one person! As the AI communicated like this, Wang Zhifan simultaneously launched Qinggong and rushed to the target location in the north.
With his current level of cultivation in the Wind and Thunder Technique, he could reach the place in just one breath of twenty miles with all his strength, but he was not in such a hurry and went at the most conventional speed.
A situation that left him speechless appeared immediately, that is, various ghosts and monsters that had disappeared without a trace were found on the way. Several of them were found on the way, and each one had their own tricks, which made him unable to help himself. Give it a try.
The first ghost he destroyed was the head of a vicious man flying through the sky looking for something.
Wang Zhifan saw that the evil aura attached to it was not small, and he estimated that it was a ruthless character, so he pulled out the Qingdi Sword and used Qinggong to rush towards it and cut it down with all his strength.
As a result, he did not expect that this man could not withstand the blow to his head. He was chopped to pieces with one knife and was instantly killed on the spot. Then, a text prompt from the extraordinary game appeared in front of him:
[After you kill the male head, you only need to kill the corresponding female head to get the title of "beating the mandarin ducks with a stick". 】
【beating mandarin ducks with a stick: You hate other people showing affection the most. When facing two opponents who are partners, the attack has a 70% probability of causing chain damage. As long as one of them is hit, the other will also suffered the same injuries. 】
"Killing a ghost can unlock the title of Beating Mandarin Ducks with a Stick? The effect of this title is pretty good, and it will be very useful against special opponents, but there are definitely no ghosts with female heads around me now. I will talk about it later."
Wang Zhifan temporarily gave up on obtaining this title, and went to eliminate other ghosts and monsters encountered on the road that did not look like miscellaneous things, and received other rewards.
For example, a ghost who was crawling fast on the ground carrying his own coffin was killed by him with a knife, and he actually got an excellent item for him. It looked like it had good attributes, so he put it into his portable space.
[Red Coffin (Excellent)]
[Red coffins often represent joy and mourning, and so does this coffin.
When you lie in it, all your injuries and illnesses will be suppressed. You will only die at the end of your life and cannot be killed by other means.
But injuries and illnesses will not disappear. If they are not treated in time, they will quickly consume your life.
If the red coffin is damaged while lying in the coffin, your lifespan will be consumed at a much faster rate.
If the damage is serious, the injuries and illnesses suppressed by the red coffin will explode instantly and cause fatal effects. 】
In addition to this outstanding piece, Wang Zhifan also revealed two other rare pieces of equipment after killing several other ghosts, namely embroidered shoes and longevity lock.
[Embroidered Shoes (Rare)]
[When a woman wears these shoes, she can increase her running speed by 20%, and comes with a "charm" skill that can temporarily confuse people with low mental attributes. The enemy stops attacking at 18 o'clock. 】
[When a man wears this pair of shoes, he can gain a "taunting" effect. All enemies have a strong tendency to attack the person wearing these shoes first as long as their mental attributes are lower than 26 points. This effect is The lower the enemy's spiritual attribute, the more obvious it is. 】
[Longevity Lock (Rare)]
[When wearing this jewelry, for every 1 year of your actual age, the physical damage you cause increases by 1%, and the physical damage you receive is reduced by 0.4%.
This piece of equipment can increase the wearer's physical damage by up to 100% and provide 50% physical damage reduction. 】
The above one outstanding and two rare plus an unfinished title are Wang Zhifan’s unexpected gains on the road.
Although the profit is not that big to him, if other players knew that he had gained such a profit after just a few casual cuts, they would definitely drool with envy.
After that, he found no ghosts worth killing on the road, and rushed all the way to his destination in the north, which was the desolate plain exuding a strong evil aura.
The information Wang Zhifan got from this place when he danced with the Great God was relatively vague. When he arrived in person, he immediately discovered that there was something strange about the ground below it. There was actually a huge underground palace, and the one he divined through the Great God Dance The fierce ghost is located in the underground palace.
And Wang Zhifan's powerful perception also told him another unexpected thing, that is, he is not the only living person in this place. There is a group of professionals working together in the underground palace. Eight or nine of them are so-called tomb robbers.
“Good guy, you dare to rob such a large tomb with an evil look? These NPCs are really talented and brave...
But they chose to go to the Land of Dead Souls to rob the tomb. It also shows that they are not ordinary characters...
I just happened to be hiding behind them to study and see the methods of the elite tomb robbers in this world. ”
Originally, when Wang Zhifan came over, he planned to sneak all the way underground to fight the fierce ghosts to get the treasure, but he suddenly changed his mind and chose to be invisible and follow the tomb robber NPC in the underground palace.
Mainly In order to observe what they will encounter in the underground palace and whether they can successfully kill the underground ghosts, let him have a mantis hunt for the cicada and the oriole behind him (End of Chapter)
